Chapter 1366 Genius and Double System 67
"Peak Master, something terrible has happened! His Highness went down the mountain yesterday and hasn't returned yet. I sent him a message, but there's been no reply." Ling Fang anxiously approached Ji Wujiu. "Something must have happened to His Highness."
Ji Wujiu was startled. Although the demons hadn't made any moves lately, they definitely hadn't disappeared; they were surely hiding and plotting something else.
He quickly checked Azhen's spirit tablet and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was intact. Then he tried to find Azhen's location using the spirit tablet, but couldn't find her at all, and his face turned extremely pale.
"Zhen'er is not in immediate danger, but we can't find her location."
"Did Zhen'er say what she was going to do down the mountain?" he asked Ling Fang.
Ling Fang said, "Recently, His Highness has not shown any intention of going out for training; he should just be taking a stroll around the city at the foot of the mountain."
"Then come with me and search along the way to see if we can find any traces."
The news of Azhen's disappearance quickly spread throughout the sect.
Even Ji Wujiu couldn't find her location, so everyone in the sect became serious, and Chu Qingxuan immediately arranged for people to search for her.
They searched the area around the Tianji Sect thoroughly and finally managed to catch some trace of Azhen, but it had almost completely dissipated, making it impossible to determine her current situation.
While the people of Tianji Sect were anxiously searching for Azhen, she had already been taken back to the Youhuan Realm by Lin Ya and Yin Yu.
The Netherworld is the stronghold of the demon race, a world apart. Even in broad daylight, the sky is a gloomy gray, with dark clouds pressing down overhead, as if the sky might collapse at any moment. The colorful clouds on the horizon don't evoke feelings of joy, but rather carry an aura of foreboding and malevolence. Gazing at them for a long time can even create a sense of oppression.
The demons here do not conceal their demonic characteristics.
Their appearances are either ugly or stunningly beautiful, extremely polarized.
The ugly demons possess the characteristics of demons, being both ugly and ferocious. The beautiful demons possess the characteristics of demons, being both beautiful and alluring.
Yin Yu and Lin Ya, who were beside Azhen, also changed in appearance. However, the two were the most beautiful among the demons. With the characteristics of the demons, their faces were even more captivating.
Lin Ya was still dressed in a white dress, and even though she was a demon in the Netherworld, she still looked like a fairy.
Yin Yu's words, coupled with the mysterious patterns on his face that belonged only to the demon race, made him appear mysterious and gloomy, clearly a dangerous person.
"Greetings, Your Highness, and greetings to the Twenty-Third Prince." In front of a gloomy, majestic, and luxurious palace, the guards addressed Lin Ya and Yin Yu with utmost respect.
Lin Ya and Yin Yu's expressions were far from pleasant; after all, no one would be happy if a plan they had meticulously crafted for years failed.
Once inside the palace, Azhen said to Lin Ya, "So you're the Holy Maiden of the Demon Clan? What is your purpose in scheming to infiltrate the cultivation world?"
Lin Ya glanced coldly at Azhen, her eyes filled with arrogance, disdain, and a hint of resentment.
Perhaps thinking that A-Zhan wouldn't be able to escape after being brought to the Netherworld, Lin Ya spoke up: "What purpose could she have? The greatest wish of the Demon Clan throughout history has been to dominate the cultivation world. As a cultivator, you should know that cultivators are a great tonic for our Demon Clan."
"So you reincarnated into the cultivation world to strike at its very foundation? As long as the younger generation in the cultivation world can't keep up, you'll have a great chance of winning your attack?" A-Zhou asked again.
Of course, she knew things were far more complicated than that; this was probably only one of her goals. "More than that, eliminating some future cultivators in the cultivation world is just a side effect," Lin Ya said disdainfully. She moved closer to Azhen and whispered, "My original intention was to wipe out all the geniuses in the cultivation world and replace them."
Unfortunately, it failed.
The bond between her and those geniuses ultimately stripped them of everything—talent, status, and position.
And since she was a reincarnation, Heaven was unable to detect it at first. By the time it could discover it, it was too late.
At first, everything went very smoothly, and she thought things were definitely going to succeed, but unexpectedly, it still failed.
Come to think of it, the problem started with Yunzhen. Thinking of this, her eyes were filled with hatred as she looked at Yunzhen.
"Yun Zhen, you've ruined my plans. Although I can't do anything to you right now, you can forget about escaping from the Netherworld. I'll take off your defensive magic items sooner or later. You'd better stay put; you don't have many good days left anyway," Lin Ya said.
She then stopped talking to Azhen and, together with Azhen and Yin Yu, entered the palace.
Soon, Azhen arrived at a magnificent space, where there were many people, all of whom were quite good-looking.
Yin Yu greeted these people first, addressing the man sitting at the head of the table as his father, who must be the Demon King.
Those standing on either side were Yin Yu's brothers and sisters.
Lin Ya, as the Holy Maiden, clearly held a very high position. It was the Demon King's children who greeted her first, and then she and the Demon King seemed to speak directly to each other without any apparent hierarchy.
"Did the Holy Maiden fail this time too? Did something go wrong?" Although he looked somewhat disappointed and unhappy, the Demon King did not get angry with Lin Ya. Instead, he asked about the specific situation.
Seeing everyone staring at Azhen, Lin Ya sneered, "I don't know how, but something went wrong and the plan failed."
Her gaze fell on Azhen: "This is Yunzhen, a disciple of the Tianji Sect. She is considered the most talented person in the cultivation world this generation, with a mutated lightning spiritual root and a cultivation level of Nascent Soul. The reason my plan failed is somewhat related to her. If it weren't for the problem with her cultivation, we might have been able to continue. She has a very powerful defensive magic treasure, which is said to have a counterattack power of thirty times. We couldn't do anything to her for the time being, so we brought her back first."
"Next, Lord Demon King, please have someone study it. If we can remove this magic weapon intact, it will be a good thing for our demon race."
"And this Yunzhen is also a skilled weapon refiner. It would be even better if we could control her." At this point, Lin Ya had completely calmed down.
The plan has failed; there's no point in saying anything now.
Instead, we should think carefully about what to do next. The demons will never give up the cultivation world. To them, it's like a hunting ground, except the prey there is too fierce. They can't get any meat and it even causes them damage.
As Lin Ya finished speaking, the gazes directed at Azhen in the main hall were filled with interest and hostility, as if they wished they could devour her alive.
"Pity."
"But the Holy Maiden must have had a tough time all these years," the Demon King said.
He looked at Azhen and waved to the people below: "Take this human cultivator away and carefully examine the defensive magic treasures on her body. If you can remove them intact, there will be a reward." (End of this chapter)
